Learn a bit about the groups and people organizing Know Shale Gas NB - About Us:
We are New Brunswick citizens who want to protect our province and the people who live here from the detrimental effects of shale gas development that have occurred in other jurisdictions with extensive shale gas development using slickwater hydraulic fracturing.
Residents of Pavilion, Wyoming; Dimock, Pennsylvania; Fort Worth and Dish, Texas; and Rosebud, Alberta are all too familiar with the effects of shale gas development – water contamination, poor air quality, decreased property values, increased noise, and overall poorer quality of life.
Know Shale Gas NB members include:
- Hampton Water First
- Darlings Island Nauwigewauk
- Quality of Life Initiative
- Council of Canadians, Saint John Chapter
- Penniac Anti-Shale Gas Organization (PASGO)
- Friends of UNB Woodlot
- Saint John and Area KAIROS
